Colin Kaepernick worked out with the Las Vegas Raiders last week and could end up signing with the team as a backup quarterback. At 34 years old, Kaepernick (who became famous for protesting police brutality by kneeling during the national anthem) hasn’t played in a game since January 1st, 2017. According to Sports Illustrated‘s Albert Breer, “I’d say the door is being left open for a deal, but it probably won’t happen right now. The workout itself went well. He didn’t blow everyone away or anything like that. But he showed he was in shape, and that his arm strength is still intact, even at 34 years old and after five seasons out of the league.”
